As a Gen Z travel writer, the idea of buying a traditional home feels farfetched. Not only would I have to spend trip money on a down payment and closing costs, it would also tie up my cash in a mortgage, remodels, and repairs. Tiny houses offer an alternative homeownership option — and some even come with enough storage for your travel outfits and suitcase collection. That’s a dream for a frequent flier like me.

Surprisingly, Amazon’s outdoor store is stocked with a variety of customizable and expandable tiny houses that are more affordable than traditional homes. My latest favorite find is this hotel resort-inspired tiny house that has a bedroom, kitchen, living room, and floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the space with natural light. You can customize the entire home, whether that’s adding another bedroom, expanding the square footage, incorporating a separate laundry room, or adding outdoor space like a front deck.

Below learn more about this unique tiny home and why it makes the perfect living space for someone looking for mortgage-free living, or who’s constantly on the go.

Using a design inspired by hotel resort cabins, this tiny house has a futuristic and elevated look. The entire front of the house has floor-to-ceiling windows to drench the space in sun, which is a huge plus if you’re using it as an art studio. Put it in the woods for mountainscape views, or build it on the beach so you have a water view. The interior measures 160-square-feet and can come move-in ready with some furniture, according to a brand representative for the manufacturing company Nexgen Nook.

There’s also the option to expand the size up to 304-square-feet for those looking for even more space. To make the customizations, simply contact the brand through WhatsApp before purchasing.

The home may look sophisticated, but building it is simple. It ships as a container, so you just need to expand and unfold the walls to transform it into your living space. You can also skip the toolbox and hard hat, it comes preinsulated with all the doors and windows included. You’ll find light sockets and plumbing pre-installed as well as a toilet and shower. You can choose to expand the space to include a soaking bathtub, which'll be perfect for soothing bubble baths. With the power in your hands, you can work with the brand to include a separate laundry room or make sure the right plumbing is included in the bathroom for a two-in-one washer and dryer.

They even added some energy efficient touches, like LED lighting, which utilizes less energy than fluorescent or halogen light bulbs, and will help cut down your energy bill. Plus, you can switch up the colors of the exterior and flooring of the tiny home for no additional cost, to add your unique touch.
